Environmental

As one of North America’s largest and most respected construction, engineering and mining companies, we’re doing our part to protect the environment.

Renewable Energy.

Our work in renewable energy markets includes wind power, concentrated solar power, hydroelectricity, geothermal energy and alternative fuel sources.

Improving Water Quality.

We build water and wastewater treatment plants. Helping conserve our most important natural resource is a job we’re proud to do.

Building Green.

We have significant participation in the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program and ongoing training for employees. Kiewit is also a founding member of the Flatwater Chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council.

Reclaiming the Earth.

Before going green was popular, Kiewit was already conducting wildlife, vegetation and archaeological studies and using innovative land reclamation practices to protect the delicate ecological balance in areas where we operate. Our reclaimed lands set standards other companies follow.

Improving the Air.

We perform air quality retrofit projects, including sulfur, mercury, CO2 and particulate removal.

Equipment Fleet Standards.

Kiewit has the largest privately owned equipment fleet in North America with 17,000 units. Soon our entire fleet will be upgraded to meet or exceed California emission standards — the highest standards in the U.S.

Mass Transit.

Kiewit has completed light rail and commuter rail projects across North America, helping to reduce traffic and carbon emissions.
